Hello fellow redditors/taskers. I am trying to get my tasks from todoist api to tasker with HTTP Request. Since the number of tasks varies, my response in %http_data is json array whose size is changing depending on how many tasks I have. To be able to get the task names, their descriptions and due dates I am trying to loop over the response length via java scriptlet. I have an action for HTTP Request and a second action in which I am trying to extract my task information by a statement like below to get the json array.

var jsonarr = JSON.parse(local('http_data')) ;

However, I cannot get it to work. Below you can find what I tried and none of them worked:

var jsonarr = JSON.parse(local('http_data')) ;

var jsonarr = JSON.parse(local('%http_data')) ;

var jsonarr = JSON.parse(http_data) ;

var jsonarr = JSON.parse(%http_data); (this actually producess "unknown token %" error)

var jsonarr = JSON.parse(global('HTTP_DATA1')) ; (I had assigned a variable HTTP_DATA1 to %http_data before executing this in separate action). (EDIT2: When I run this, this actually hangs)

I am getting "unexpected end of json file" no matter what I have tried. If I can get it to work, ultimately, I will loop over jsonarr.length and create my variables dynamically then will pass them over to KLWP.

EDIT: I am using Tasker 6.0.10, mi 9 lite, android 10

Asking for your help and thanks in advance for reading :)

EDIT3: Please see attached comment about the fix.
